Also, polls are funky again. Kinda hard to get one going outside of the main forum topics.

No. Because when you get down to it: Who really cares anymore? Brink isn't worth it. The entire internet agrees.

If you like it, good. But move on with your life already.

There's nothing wrong with liking a shit game.

No, just leave it be. He called the game ass, some people disagreed with it (including myself) and now it's done.

For the record: I don't have the game. Never will. Not my cup of semen.

Not enough of a difference to matter.

The game isn't drastically different on the PC to warrant a rereview.  

Yes, review it on the moble phone. 

Oh, I mean PC.

It's the same GD turd on PC, but we need a second opinion.

Because a lot of folks are having fun playing it.

Whatever.

Move on people.

" Not enough of a difference to matter. "

Surely if he reviews it a second time he will see the light! oh wait it's a bad game... nevermind.

Haven't played the console version but the PC version is pretty bad and I agree with pretty much everything Jeff said in the review for the Xbox version.

You'd have a greater chance making him re-endure Persona 4 than do another review of Brink, I think.

Jeff doesn't know how to use WASD

Not sure if he should do an official review of it but someone at GB should look in on the PC version & compare notes with the 360 review and either put up a separate review or just talk about the PC version on the bombcast as I'm curious to see how it fares.

No, he should not.

" I am already fucking sick of people trying to think of ways to make this game better 'Oh play it with a full group' or 'Play the PC Version' Shut the fuck up, it's just a bad game. "

This game is getting more attention then it deserves.

If he feels it's different enough to warrant it's own review, then yes.

People taking GB's review as gospel is far worse than Brink could ever be. Sounds like a borderline broken console version was released, but is not reflective of the experience on all versions necessarily. I see no point in a PC review though because this isn't a review site and completeness in reviewing is not a priority. If they didn't generate traffic I don't think they'd do them at all.

It would be nice if people read a little bit more critically before parroting the opinions of others.

No.

There's a day and night difference console Brink to PC Brink.

It should maybe not be reviewed, but it should be given a quick look.

And Bethesda should send a free copy out.. to all the reviewers who gave the 360 Brink that got such bad scores, something else to look at.

The shooting is imprecise on consoles but the concept and gameplay are just lame and don't deserve a second look. Plus he's probably busy playing LA Noire

" @Oginam Sorry, you lost me when you called this a Demons Souls situation.That game was genuinely good.Brink is just another FPS with some light objective modes that won't last more than a month.I cannot believe people are coming out of the woodwork to defend such a mediocre title. "

I own it on the PC and I feel like I got ripped off. There's nowhere near 60 bucks of content and the game plays like crap. So, no, Jeff doesn't need to do a PC review.

They should go back and redo every review they've ever done! Honestly I'm enjoying Brink, Jeff didn't, who cares just play the game.

Brink is bad, lets not subject Jeff to anymore of this

My opinion of the game is that it is decent. His opinion is that it is crap. Do I care? Not really.

Brinkgate 2011 is at almost an 8.8 level of annoyance. 
Seriously other then a mouse and keyboard and possible better graphic, how huge of a difference is there in the PC version then the console one?  If you like Brink  then what the fuck difference does it matter if Jeff Gertsman hates it ?  Will the PC version change Jeff's opinion is such a dramatic matter that he will spend over 20 minutes on Bombcast apologizing for his mistake and offering Epic Mickeys to those he wronged with his 2 Star review of Brink? 

Jeff hated Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions yet I disagreed but rather then bitch about it I thought maybe it isn't his cup of tea and went about my day.

I got the pc version, its alright, but I wouldn't ask for another review. Personally I like the game but I'm not gonna throw a shit fit cause GB didn't.  And honestly I can't see there being much of a difference between the versions, if you like it you like it, if you don't then then you don't.

I'd rather he spend time reviewing L.A. Noire.  

If only there was a gaming site on the internet that had a massive user-editable wiki section that would allow users to highlight the differences between the 360, PS3 and PC versions and maybe even write their own reviews.

Oh well we can dream.

From the overview of Brink, we should just move on and seek to review new games.
Just because it is Bethesda doesn't mean the game is fantastic, sometimes a reputation like that can harm expectations as well.
I was let down expecting more from this game, such a sad string of events.

I think they (Splash Damage / Bethesda) should have just handled the review process for their blatantly multiplayer-focused game in a less n00b way.

The PC version has it's own host of issues. Some ATI cards can't even run the game properly, there's some serious lag issues and some levels cut out sound completely. I don't think reviewing Brink on PC would make Jeff like the game anymore. After playing it for a bit on PC the shooting still feels kind of weak and unsatisfying. Yeah, the issues might not be as egregious but at the end of the day a lot of people still don't like how Brink plays, regardless of platform. Move on and stop complaining.

Somebody might mention it on the podcast like "I played Brink on the PC, it was...." but a re-review? No way

NOPE

No, most of the things Jeff takes issue with wouldn't really be lessened in the PC version. 

I have thought from the start of playing this game that it must be abnormally difficult to play with a gamepad compared to other shooters because of how inaccurate the guns are, especially when moving, and yet how much you have to be constantly on the move.  I also think the whole SMART movement wouldn't work as easily on a gamepad as it's more dependent on your turning ability than your lateral movement (i.e., you can't sprint diagonally, so you have to depend on your ability to aim wherever you want to [or don't want to] perform a maneuver, while also being able to quickly aim and shoot at an enemy immediately before or after).  I think all shooters play leaps and bounds better with a mouse and keyboard regardless, but moreso than normal in Brink's case.

However, most of the things that put Jeff off of the game still exist on the PC, and I don't see his verdict being much different.  He might find the gameplay a little smoother on the PC, but the framework that he criticized so much will have the same perceived flaws.

Furthermore, Jeff is a dedicated console gamer, so even if he were to play with a mouse and keyboard, he's wired to have a propensity at this point to move, behave, and think the way he would with the limitations of a gamepad (until he played enough to rewire his brain for the different control input, which he would never do), so I doubt it would give him a huge boost.
